Waypoint Tickler

Type
Waypoint


The rolling hills on the outward face of Waypoint Tickler are almost impossible to detect becuase of the tall pines, spruces, and larches growing on the outward side.  The round skylith is 10 miles across, its oblate shape disturbed only by a cliff on the southern "side".  Its orbit in the outer reaches near a shear wall positions it to traverse an intersection of colder and humid air, which—especially near apastron—results in the frost and snow these trees love.

Orbit:
slightly elliptical, in the lower part of the outer reaches, 32h revolution
Rotation:
synchronous
Gravity:
stronger than earth-normal
Terrain:
rolling hills covered in boreal forest populated by deer, rabbits, foxes, and the occasional wolpertinger.  South side of otherwise round skylith has a vertical cliff
Services available:
short-term stay, transshipping, long term storage of items
Known for:
good transshipping/resupply in and out of Grafton
Hazards:
proximity to shear wall can result in unexpected cold snap, or stronger-than anticipated storms; the winds and that cliff are attractive to air elementals
